What is Legal Terms Jury Nullification?
Legal Terms Jury Nullification — Jury Nullification information: This happens when the jury fails to follow its oath and instructions and instead finds against the wrong party because the moral issue involved is too much for the jury to bear. Jury nullification might occur, for instance, where a husband avenges the murder of his wife by killing the attacker. A sympathetic jury then nullifies the cause.
